Prayer Times in Karlskrona, Sweden

Prayer times in Karlskrona are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (56.16°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across Sweden. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

Karlskrona's times use the Muslim World League method. That is the standard followed by most mosques in Sweden. They are drawn from Karlskrona's own coordinates (56.1616°N, 15.5866°E). The schedule updates automatically at midnight, with no manual setting.

How Karlskrona's prayer times are worked out

From Karlskrona, the Qibla is 143° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,348 km (2,702 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Karlskrona's own coordinates (56.16°N, 15.59°E), not a national average. That is why Karlskrona's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.

Day length is what moves the Karlskrona timetable through the year. With the Muslim World League method, the longest daily fast — Fajr to Maghrib — runs about 18h 34m around June. It eases to 9h 18m by December. That is a 9h 16m swing, set by the city's latitude of 56.16°N. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider the gap.

The Fajr and Isha angles for Karlskrona come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. Karlskrona sits west of its Stockholm meridian. The sun peaks about 6 minutes after noon, so Dhuhr today is 11:43 AM. We also publish times for nearby Växjö, Lund and Malmö. Each is only a few minutes off Karlskrona's clock.

Sweden's unified timetable and the midnight-sun problem

Sweden is unusual. Since 1 May 2016 its mosques have shared one national timetable. The Swedish Imam Council adopted it, and Islamiska Förbundet publishes it. It is based on the Turkish Diyanet's calculation, which uses the same 18°/17° twilight angles as the Muslim World League method this page applies. So the times here line up closely with the national convention. The official table adds small precaution margins. The real challenge is latitude. From early May to early August, true night never falls over much of Sweden. The Imam Council's own guidance notes that the sharia signs for Isha and Fajr disappear. Northern communities therefore follow the nearest city with usable times. For Ramadan, guidance from the European Council for Fatwa permits estimation where the signs are absent.

Mosques of Stockholm, Malmö and the north

The Stockholm Mosque on Södermalm opened in 2000. It is named for its Emirati benefactor, Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, and is the capital's largest. Malmö's mosque, inaugurated in 1984, was among the country's first purpose-built. Sweden keeps no religious statistics. Pew estimated its Muslim-background population at roughly 8% in 2016, among the highest shares in Western Europe. Its roots run from Iraq and Syria to Somalia, Bosnia and Turkey. Clocks change with the EU, on the last Sundays of March and October. In midsummer the far north sees no sunset at all, and communities in Kiruna have been advised to follow Stockholm's timetable.
